LOVE!</p> <p>Smittie - sorry, I can't see your photos, but from the other comments the jacket looked stunning on you as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1704745 Fri, 29 Jul 2016 02:27:47 +0000 BrieN 1704745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smittie: I hope other people weigh in here. I have always thought the same as you in this regard-- had never considered wearing a leather moto indoors until this eye-opening thread.&nbsp;<br />I would love to know what weight leather/suede jackets people find comfortable wearing indoors.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1704734 Fri, 29 Jul 2016 02:07:19 +0000 Anonymous 1704734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brie : I totally understand reallocating budget to other things. You can't have it all, so picking the best of the best is well, always best :)<br /> The thing I dont understand is: Can you wear a thin moto jacket indoors?<br /> I have a lightweight Moto and felt weird wearing it indoors. I opted for this thicker Moto for a better range of outdoor wear.</p> <p>I hope I'm not too crazy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1704714 Fri, 29 Jul 2016 01:46:33 +0000 BrieN 1704714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Angie, and everyone. &nbsp;I will probably pass on this jacket as I have already found a few things at NAS that fill other wants/needs. After thinking about the comments on this thread, I'm betting that in general a lighter jacket would be more versatile, which is a priority for me at this point and time; I'm also guessing that I am too stocky for this jacket's slim fit. &nbsp;Of course if it showed up at my store I'd <b>run</b> out and try it on.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1704392 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 16:39:10 +0000 Angie 1704392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo what Suz said.&nbsp;</p> <p>It's a STUNNING jacket, but very heavy. Too heavy to wear indoors. Runs small.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1704127 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 04:13:46 +0000 lpr200 1704127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw this in store and thought the leather felt fabulous...I...do...not...need...another...leather...jacket...</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1704075 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 02:41:52 +0000 BrieN 1704075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Colette: Good to know it is dream worthy, and a good reminder to think about fit preferences with something like this.</p> <p>Muffin: I know! I am admiring from afar.</p> <p>Suz: Good point about indoor/outdoor weight. Having never owned something like this I don't have a frame of reference of what I would end up wanting/wearing more.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1703965 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 00:36:47 +0000 Suz 1703965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, I <b>LOVE</b> it on you, <b>Smittie.</b> No wonder you exchanged for the TT and puffer. This is fantastic.&nbsp;</p> <p>I loved it on you, too, <b>Colette.</b>&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Angie</b> said on one thread or another that it is an amazing jacket. She is a BIG fan of Mackage. I think perhaps it's the type of leather that it is -- very much an outdoor jacket -- that may have given her pause for a Top Pick, knowing as she does that many clients need a soft jacket they can wear indoors.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have to say, seeing it here, I'm sorely tempted myself, even though I know I would have very few times/ places to wear it and on the whole I prefer softer/ lighter leather jackets.&nbsp;</p> <p>I adore the neck of this one, and its sturdiness means it will simply develop a patina over time. It will never, ever date. It's a fabulous piece that a woman might have in her closet for 30 years.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1703951 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 00:06:38 +0000 Muffin 1703951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know nothing other than how amazing it looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1703950 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 00:03:37 +0000 Colette 1703950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this jacket so much, I'm still dreaming about it. In the picture I am wearing a S and I feel it is a slim fit all over. I would only wear this as fall/spring outerwear jacket over a light to medium weight sweater so I would probably buy the S. (But I didn't try the M to compare.) True Fit also recommend I buy the S. Obviously smittie sized up to a M to wear a chunky sweater. And it looks great, I think because of the slim fit. But, as I learned in smittie's post about fit on the TT and TNF coats, everyone has a different fit preference even though they technically are the same size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1703935 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 23:39:12 +0000 BrieN 1703935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smittie: It looks amazing on you. WOW amazing.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you for the fit information, that's very very helpful.&nbsp;</p> <p>It sold out here very quickly and only recently have a few sizes popped back up.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1703921 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 23:13:39 +0000 Anonymous 1703921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I bought it :)<br /> I got it in a medium for layering with my thickest sweaters. I have another one in this brand and I chose an XS as I liked the fit of the shoulders, but I don't like to wear it closed because it is quite tight in the tummy. They're also cut with tight arms (which I like, but many don't).</p> <p>With this medium, I'm going to wear it closed. You can see in the pics that the shoulders are slightly big on me. I have 15" wide shoulders, 29" waist. </p> <p>I would say their size chart is bang on.</p> <p>I found the arm length average and it is not overly cropped.</p> <p> Maybe Angie thinks it's too expensive for what it is? Maybe it's not good value? I'm not sure. I was Ok with the price. It's possible I feel more positively about this brand than I should because it's Canadian.</p> <p>But Brie. It's going to sell out. I tried to get it in a small, and there were 3 left in Ottawa on saturday and they were all gone by yesterday. There was one left in Vancouver and another one in Calgary yesterday, but gone today.</p> <p>On the other hand, the Mackage brand is more well known in Canada (ay least I *think* so) so maybe it sells out faster here. Not sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mackage-jacket-feedback#post-1703909 Wed, 27 Jul 2016 22:40:07 +0000 BrieN 1703909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been eyeing this jacket since day one. I think only Colette has tried it on and posted a photo (and made me want it more ? &nbsp;In any case I would love some feedback on how it fits. I know other jackets were chosen as top picks - maybe it's long in the arms or short in the torso?-one of the photos of the model the body looks suspiciously short. &nbsp;I don't own a leather jacket or a vegan version or anything like that and I do own a Theory cloth moto/jacket that has a sort of short funnel neck when closed that looks very much like this one and I love that moto. </p>
